Tiffany Stratton Thread: It's Tiffy Time, Toodles!

[centeroftheuniverse]

I do feel it's between Tiffany and Chelsea, that definitely feels the consensus on the vids / posts I've seen, and both would be good choices. If Tiffany doesn't win then I hope they do give it to Chelsea.

If they do go with Chelsea, I just hope they have a substantial alternative for Tiffy. Like a run in with host Trish before the match and her somehow costing her and them beefing for 5-6 weeks, or a high profile feud with a returning Charlotte Flair would in some ways be just as good as winning the briefcase, but if she doesn't win, has the next 4 weeks playing obvious sidekick to Nia in the lead up to Nia's title shot, and then mainly tags for the rest of the year if/when Nia loses at Summerslam would be pretty underwhelming. Tagging with Nia would be better than being in a random tag team with a Blair/Indi or someone as Nia is still presented as a top player, but from stealing shows in Australia to title shots in France, looking like the next big thing and an imminent threat to the (world) champion, even winning the tag titles would be a bit lame from where she was positioned only a few months ago.

Possibly just me being pessimistic, but I can see them going with Chelsea.

We’ve heard nothing about Bianca or Jade being upset by it, like nothing at all

So I’m letting this go now.

Also, Tiff was really over wit fans AGAIN last night.

I knew it wouldn't affect her crowd reactions. These things never do.

Either way, just gotta start really checking things before you repost 'em.

And to be fair, not everybody follows everyone else on social media either. I didn't even know anything had happened until I saw these posts and I had to google it.

I rarely have audio on when I view videos on social media cos you don't normally need it, or I'm watching it in public. I believe her.

She was asked about the Jade Instagram post. 

Who really gives a shit now? Nobody was mad. It was one big pile of nonthing than and even more so now

Okay, I'm just going to say it here, these megathreads for specific talents are just the absolute f***ing worst. Be it this thread or the Damage CTRL thread, they just inevitably snowball into the regulars in the thread basically just bullying out anyone who actually takes issue with the act or isn't fond of them. It suffocates conversation and in this particular case is basically rendering it impossible to talk about Tiffany being a problematic at best performer because, "Uh, no, we decided we're not going to talk about that," is the order of the day in the thread about her.

Seems like the dividing point of contention is whether one considers referencing the colour of someone’s skin as an adverb to a milquetoast insult like “bitch” to be a racial slur on par with your more conventional racial slurs.

Because calling Tiffany Stratton a racist after the whole instagram whimper is a HUGE reach especially sense none of the talent reacted or was ever mentioned afterwards.

And even with any explanation or apologies it turns into "f*** THIS PERSON FOREVER AND I'M GONNA SAY IT EVERY POST I MAKE ABOUT THAT PERSON" and it's just tiring.

[Saiyanic Panic]

They've a right to those feelings. I think it's odd dicier stuff than what was done is espoused under the guise of Stratton saying it, but whatevs.

Stratton/Stratus would be sweet for SummerSlam. That's up there on her dream matches.

I will just say that is not at all the discussion and has not been in the Joshi Island thread so feel welcome to drop on by.

Saying “daddy’s little racist” wasn’t funny or clever the first time, saying it every other post just screams “IAM FUNNY LOOK AT ME!”

[Alice Syndrome]

Nee she claims it was an honest mistake, but the likes people saw on her account sure weren't.

[A Little Doo Doo]

Trishy Time vs. Tiffy Time at SummerSlam? Could be interesting.

[Dave the Dave]

Welp, this thread getting bumped means I knew she won MITB. Guess that’s my fault for getting on here before I could watch.

[asuka007]

She almost killed fellow Canadian Chelsea, and the crowd STILL went nuts when she won anyway.

Yeah she needs to be champion by the end of the year imo.

To touchback: I hadn't seen this be a recurring theme really. Majority of this thread before & after has been some glooming over her not being on television or a non-factor debating with others saying they've got a plan for her and Tiffany's treading water until then.

Credit to Chels; that table bump was growdy in the best of ways.
